The type of self-actualization in which Maslow brings up isn't quite complete. He refers to man's desire for fulfillment and says a musician must make music a painter must paint etc, this only holds true for those who love doing that which they're good at and they believe in. So I think to further clarify it, self-actualization is more than simply becoming great at something it's the reasons behind the desire to become great at that something. No matter how great a painter may be if it isn't his passion and he doesn't believe in his work he will not be fulfilled. So I guess what I mean to say is what Maslow means is it's an individual finding something they believe in and devoting themselves with an intense passion to their art or whatever it may be.
